Inertial reference frames and Newton’s first law
Your friend has a pie on the roof of his van. You are standing on the ground and observe the van stopping abruptly for a red light. The pie does not slip off the roof. (a) Construct a motion diagram and a force diagram for the pie as the van approaches the red light, from your frame of reference and from the driver’s frame of reference. (b) Repeat part (a) for the case when the light turns green. Be sure to specify the observer and identify the other object causing each force. (c) Are the motion diagrams consistent with the force diagrams for each case?
